    MSN Spaces struggles on launch

    According to the official spaces blog, the first 12 hours after the launch were beset by poor performance problems, including issues related to e-mail publishing, statistics pages not working and emoticons from previous Spaces versions not working.

     "We know we disappointed a bunch of you with the issues we had in our rollout last night," wrote "Greg" on the official Spaces blog Tuesday. "We planned long and hard for this release and unfortunately, it was one of those gotchas that only showed up once we were in production."

     Even I had problems, my URL (www.spaces.msn.com/Rujith) is gone, and it not redirecting to the new one too L, publishing thru email is not working  etc.. 

     Hope they will fix these issues ASAP.

    AssemblyVersion Vs AssemblyFileVersion

     

    Someone asked me the difference between AssemblyVersion Vs AssemblyFileVersion. Well the difference lies in their name itself. One is the version of the assembly the other is version of the file, wait, am I making it complex? Ok let me explain.

    The AssemblyVersion is what other assemblies that reference your namespace will look at. If that number changes, then the referencing assembly blows up. But you as the developer still need to know what version of the assembly is deployed, and for that you use the AssemblyFileVersion attribute. Increment it every time a new version of the assembly is deployed.
